Name That Caption



As a fun way to announce the official beer of Factory Five Racing, we are holding a "Name That Caption" contest. The crew here at Factory Five will pick the funniest caption and the winner will receive a free case of Ipswich Ale. We don't have any rules other than you gotta be 21 (I guess) and I don't think we can ship beer so you gotta pick it up here at FFR. If the winner doesn't pick-up the beer within 10 days, we will drink it all.

Dave Smith
President

Wow! I guess the FFR Mendeola transaxle is the lightweight version!

How about...

"Say hello to my little friend!" In a nice cuban/puerto rican accent, of course! or...

"Think they'll notice this is gone?" or..

"Yes, as a matter of fact, I am happy to see you." or..

"The Mendeolas are in early this year" in my best Dan Akroyd voice.

"My tranny can beat up your tranny." And yes, I did mean it THAT way.

Dave told me I'd pick up this car building stuff...but really?

I wonder what Dave meant when he told me he'd give me the shaft AFTER I put this thing in the car.....

I told my wife I was bringing home something fun, and it was ribbed.

This cost me as much as my gold watch...

Ok, so how was I supposed to know this wasn't a rotary engine?.

Oh great. I have an itch on my nose....

Dave told if I could pick this up I had to buy him a case of Ipswich Ale. Hey wait a second....

HA! I'd love to see the look on Dave's face when he tries to drive home tonight....

A Couple of Ipswich Ales for me and a little KY goes right in here........

This is gonna be awesome in the New Factory Five Snow blower....

On a Side note. I talked to my old Boss the other day he mentioned the guy across the street from him in Sharon was building a FFR and he was the President or something of Ipswich Ale.....Is that the connection?

I was going to put it in the trunk, and then I remembered I don't have a frigging trunk.

I decided to demonstrate the need for a trunk to Dave. Even if it only had enough space for a transaxle, at least it would be enough to bring my Mendeola back home home and swap it out with the G50.

I want AWD, so I decided I should start with a new transaxle.

here Dave, lets play catch.

I'm gonna win April Fool's day this year for sure. He'll try to put it in gear and realize he doesn't have any gears.
